"Most of my teammates said that BDCP was the only reason they could live through the next week. They have developed characteristics such as empathy, compassion, and the genuine concern for others. [BDCP] gives the support they do not get from anywhere else. You are the reason to keep trying. You are the reason to work harder. You are the reason they now believe in themselves. You are the motivation to live on."
